Get medical attention if irritation occurs and persists. Skin: Wash contact area with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation or symptoms of exposure develop. Inhalation: No first aid should be needed. If irritation from dust occurs and persists, get medical attention. Ingestion: No harmful effects are expected. If symptoms occur, get medical attention.

2 4.2 Most Important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed: If dust is generate, it may cause slight mechanical eye, skin, and respiratory irritation. Symptoms would include itching eyes and skin, cough, and nasal congestion. 4.3 Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed: None known SECTION 5: FIRE AND EXPLOSION DATA 5.1 Extinguishing Media: Use water fog or spray, universal foam, or dry chemical. 5.2 Special Hazards Arising from the Substance or Mixture Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Dust generated in cutting or other processing of this material may present a potential fire and explosion hazard if suspended in air at high concentrations. Minimize the generation and accumulation of dust. Composition Products: Oxides of carbon and chromium compounds. 5.3 Advice for Fire-Fighters: Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Wear an approved, positive pressure, self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing for all fires involving chemicals. SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES 6.1 Personal Precautions, Protective Equipment and Emergency Procedures: No special procedures required. 6.2 Environmental Precautions: Avoid release to the environment. Report spills and releases as required to appropriate authorities. 6.3 Methods and Material for Containment and Cleaning Up: Pick up material and place into a container for disposal. 6.4 Reference to Other Sections: Refer to Section 8 for personal protective equipment and Section 13 for disposal information. SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE 7.1 Precautions for Safe Handling: Avoid creating and breathing dusts. Use with adequate ventilation. Wash thoroughly after handling. Minimize the generation and accumulation of dust. Keep dust away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition. 7.2 Conditions for Safe Storage, Including any Incompatibilities: Store in a dry area. 7.3 Specific end use(s): None specified SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION 8.1 Control Parameters: Refer to country-specific legislation for specific requirements where not listed below. 2 of 5 Chemical Name Processed Corn Cobs (as particulates not otherwise classified, or dust) Aluminum Oxide Highly refined mineral oil Exposure Limits 15 mg/m 3 TWA (Total Dust); 5 mg/m 3 TWA (Respirable) OSHA PEL 10 mg/m 3 TWA Belgium OEL 10 mg/m 3 TWA (Inhalable); 4 mg/m 3 TWA (Respirable) UK OEL 4 mg/m 3 TWA (Inhalable); 1.5 mg/m 3 TWA (Respirable) DFG MAK 15 mg/m 3 TWA (Total Dust); 5 mg/m 3 TWA (Respirable) OSHA PEL 1 mg/m 3 TWA (Inhalable) ACGIH TLV 10 mg/m 3 TWA (Inhalable); 4 mg/m 3 TWA (Respirable) UK OEL 4 mg/m 3 TWA (Inhalable); 1.5 mg/m 3 TWA (Respirable) DFG MAK 5 mg/m 3 TWA OSHA PEL 5 mg/m 3 TWA (Inhalable) ACGIH TLV

3 5 mg/m 3 TWA Belgium OEL 8.2 Exposure Controls: Ventilation: General exhaust ventilation should normally be adequate to control exposures. If exposures are excessive, local exhaust ventilation should be used. Respiratory Protection: None required for normal use. If needed, an approved dust respirator may be used. Respirator selection and use should be based on contaminant type, form and concentration. Follow applicable regulations and good Industrial Hygiene practice. Skin Protection: None should be needed under normal use conditions. Impervious gloves should be used for prolonged or repeated contact. Eye Protection: None should be needed under normal use conditions. Safety glasses should be used if eye contact is likely. Other Protective Equipment: None should be needed under normal use conditions. 9.1 Information on basic Physical and Chemical Properties SECTION 9: PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Appearance: Green granules Odor: Slight hydrocarbon Odor Threshold: No data available ph: Not applicable Melting Point/Freezing Point: Not applicable Boiling Point: Not applicable Flash Point: C (420 F) Evaporation Rate: Not applicable Flammable Limits: LEL: Not applicable UEL: Not applicable Vapor Pressure: Not applicable Vapor Density: Not applicable Specific Gravity: No data available Solubility: Very slightly soluble in water Octanol/Water Partition Coefficient: No data available Autoignition Temperature: No data available Decomposition Temperature: No data available Viscosity: Not applicable Explosive Properties: None Oxidizing Properties: None Flammability (solid, gas): No data available 9.2 Other Information: None available SECTION 10: STABILITY AND REACTIVITY 10.1 Reactivity: Not reactive 10.2 Chemical Stability: Stable 10.3 Possibility of Hazardous Reactions: Will not occur Conditions to Avoid: Keep away from excessive heat and open flames Incompatible Materials: Strong oxidizers Hazardous Decomposition Products: Combustion will produce oxides of carbon Information on Toxicological Effects: 3 of 5 SECTION 11: TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION Potential Health Effects: Eye Contact: May cause slight mechanical eye irritation.
